Hello Bjørn!
I've heard you talked about this picture, but I've never got the chance to see it. I was just surfin' around on the net when I saw this picture. I thought it maybe was yours, and it was! Man, the world is small. Too bad you didn't get the chance to upload it to the Aftenposten-contest, you'd won it! I'm really impressed.
See you at school!

Absolutely fantastic photo, Bjørn Christian! Living in Oslo myself, I'm curious as to where this picture was taken from?
I was on top of St. Hanshaugen at the time and though the view was beatiful from there, it's uncomparable to this marvel :)

In Norway there's no tradition for fireworks arranged by the city. It's too cold in January to gather downtown for the celebrations, so everyone just go out into their gardens or a nearby open spot, launch their rockets and then head back inside. The result is a view like this, with fireworks shooting up from absolutely everywhere at midnight on January 1.
